curl: (35) error:14094412:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3

Here's my command curl -E /root/key-cert https://ewsg-cert.prudent... and the result: curl: (35) error:14094412:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert bad certificate This seems weird to me: Note that this certificate is the private key and the private certificate concatenated! I assume the private certificate is just the certificate. In any case my file key-cert looks like -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- ... -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- ... -----END CERTIFICATE----- What does the error above mean and what could I possibly be doing wrong to cause it?

forcing my untangle server to scan my https traffic
by Bing H Bang 01 Mar '11

01 Mar '11

I'm so close to making this work, I can taste it. I also need some suggestions on how to fix the last hurdle. My setup 10.0.0.10 ip of my webserver 24.159.165.122 static ip of my untangle server (router mode) untangle server port forwards 443 to 10.0.0.10:10443 80 to 10.0.0.10:80 (web server only listens on 443) stunnel config file on the web server [https-terminate] client = no cert = /var/lib/stroot/cypherdog.com.pem accept = 10.0.0.10:10443 connect = 24.159.165.122:80 [https-re-engage] client = yes accept = 10.0.0.10:80 connect = 10.0.0.10:443 What I'm trying to do is accept https traffic, decrypt it, pass it through untangle, then encrypt it back as it gets delivered to the https port of the web server. This setup works in that I can point my browser at the https port of my untangle server and the web pages work properly. What doesn't work is the untangle server shows no scanning activity when I access the web pages. I think the path webserver->untangle->webserver does not trigger the scanning in untangle because the traffic it sees is from an internal ip going to the same internal ip. Is there a way to fix this, anyone?

Problems SSLifying an "exec" Service without KeepAlive
by Jochen Bern 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Hello everyone, today I tried to set up network access to a service using stunnel 4.35. The underlying service, by default, exits after every request+reply. When running stunnel in daemon mode, this seems to upset things such that subsequent connections hang. I cannot quite pinpoint whether it's a config problem, design (of my setup) problem, or bug, so any help's welcome ... More info: The underlying service accesses a Nagios' livestatus interface > http://mathias-kettner.de/checkmk_livestatus.html#H1:Remote%20access%20to%2… using the "unixcat" tool provided. Unless you specifically request connection keepalives, unixcat will close/exit after answering one request, *or* timing out waiting for one. That "exit procedure", AFAICT, isn't different from what the imapd or pppd in the stunnel(8) manpage's EXAMPLES section do ... I need to secure access to the service, so I'm throwing client cert verification and libwrap at the connections. The current daemon mode configuration (with several commented-out attempts) reads, slightly anonymized: client=no verify=3 pid=/var/run/stunnel/livestatus.pid #setuid=stunnel #socket = a:SO_REUSEADDR=0 #foreground= yes [livestatus] accept = [...PORT...] cert = [...SERVER...].pem key = [...SERVER...].key CAfile = [...CA...].pem CApath = [...TempStagingDirectory...] exec = /usr/local/bin/unixcat execargs = unixcat /var/lib/nagios3/rw/live pty = yes retry = no session = 3 #TIMEOUTclose = 0 #TIMEOUTbusy = 5 #TIMEOUTidle = 5 After starting the stunnel daemon, I can perform *one* normal connection: > # openssl s_client -CAfile [...CA...].pem -showcerts \ > > -connect [...SERVER...]:[...PORT...] -cert [...CLIENT...].cert \ > > -key [...CLIENT...].key -state > CONNECTED(00000003) > SSL_connect:before/connect initialization > SSL_connect:SSLv2/v3 write client hello A > SSL_connect:SSLv3 read server hello A [...] > SSL handshake has read 1743 bytes and written 1933 bytes > --- > New, TLSv1/SSLv3, Cipher is AES256-SHA > Server public key is 1024 bit > Compression: NONE > Expansion: NONE > SSL-Session: > Protocol : TLSv1 > Cipher : AES256-SHA > Session-ID: 1B4221E2917E3BD49AA2102C2CCE60A624DB256D6B4D61F9D0D77EA843DC31BC > Session-ID-ctx: > Master-Key: 57E6DF8E7E0A741B718E356467450DD00969465295A9C6FE03416ED16E74AF93058EC168EF6DF1B9F3F637F505FF6EF4 > Key-Arg : None > Start Time: 1298390481 > Timeout : 300 (sec) > Verify return code: 0 (ok) > --- At that point, I can type in one request, then unixcat terminates, stunnel closes the connection and s_client (?) reports: > read:errno=104 Typical log output on the server side: > LOG5[30042:139819109037792]: Reading configuration from file /etc/stunnel/livestatus.conf > LOG5[30042:139819109037792]: Peer certificate location [...TempStagingDirectory...] > LOG5[30042:139819109037792]: Configuration successful > LOG5[30042:139819109037792]: No limit detected for the number of clients > LOG5[30043:139819109037792]: stunnel 4.35 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu with OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007 > LOG5[30043:139819109037792]: Threading:PTHREAD SSL:ENGINE Sockets:POLL,IPv6 [...] > LOG5[30043:1075198288]: Service livestatus accepted connection from [...CLIENT...]:39287 > LOG5[30043:1075198288]: Certificate accepted: depth=1, [...CA...] > LOG5[30043:1075198288]: Certificate accepted: depth=0, [...CLIENT...] > LOG3[30043:1075198288]: readsocket: Input/output error (5) > LOG5[30043:1075198288]: Connection reset: 2293 bytes sent to SSL, 33 bytes sent to socket Rerunning the exact same command stops dead after the > CONNECTED(00000003) and manually "telnet"ing to the port from a different host doesn't behave in a normal way (closing the connection after I type the first line of non-SSL stuff) anymore, either. Running the unixcat command from a local command line, however, still works normally. I tried running stunnel off inetd, which seems to work, so I'd guess it's the server-side SSL session cacheing which interferes. However, I don't see any related stunnel config keywords in the manpage, and stunnel offering a cached session to a connection *from a different client host* sound odd to me, too ... ?

New and Utterly Confused on Ubuntu Linux
by Traps 20 Feb '11

20 Feb '11

I am totally new to stunnel and am quite confused. I use Ubuntu 10.04 and have installed the stunnel4 deb package. I need to do a couple of things. At boot up I need to accept ssl connections on an inbound port and forward it to a non-ssl compliant app listening on another port. The second thing I need to do is make an ssl required connection to a pop server on another host out of a non-ssl mail client on the local machine. I have no problem with the ports, port forwarding, etc. I just do not know how to set up stunnel to accomplish this. Let's just use this as an example: 1. I need to accept inbound ssl connections on 995 (port 995 is open) and send them to the local machine non-ssl client listening on 2995. 2. I need to ssl connect to pop.gmail.com:995 via a non-ssl mail client on the local machine and I want the mail client to connect to stunnel on port 3995. 3. I need both of these scenarios to start at boot up. I don't even know where to start with stunnel4 to do this. Actually I can set up stunnel.conf for either but one's a server operation and the other is a client operation and can't get them both to work simultaneously. To start stunnel at boot up I simply edited /etc/default/stunnel and /etc/init.d/stunnel4 and changed ENABLED=0 to ENABLED=1 in both files. Something tells me this is entirely the wrong way to do what I want to do. It works for either the client task or the server task, depending on which one I have enabled in stunnel.conf but I just know this is not how I am suppose to be doing it. Will someone help? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/New-and-Utterly-Confused-on-Ubuntu-Linux-tp30970693p3… Sent from the Stunnel - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Wireshark didn't show TLSv1 traffic?
by Bao, Robert 17 Feb '11

17 Feb '11

Hi, I have "ciphers = AES256-SHA" option in stunnel.conf file. And when the server/client established the connection, I see this line in the log file: Negotiated ciphers: AES256-SHA SSLv3 Kx=RSA Au=RSA Enc=AES(256) Mac=SHA1 However when I use Wireshark to sniff the traffic, I only see "TCP" in the <Protocol> column for the traffics between the server and the client. Is this normal? What did I do wrong? Thanks.

Confusion regarding part of stunnel.conf
by Dave 12 Feb '11

12 Feb '11

I've set up a test of stunnel with the latest stunnel and latest openssl, and if I set "verify=0" or "verify=1" I can get it to work (I'm tunneling a pop3 session), but if I set it any higher (to 2 or 3) it won't work for me. Now, I'm not sure which level is "necessary" because in stunnel.conf I read: ------------------------- ; authentication stuff needs to be configured to prevent MITM attacks ; it is not enabled by default! ;verify = 2 ------------------------- ... which sounds like verify defaults to 0. But is a verify level of 1 enough to solve the man-in-the-middle problem? It seems like it would not be (since level 1 will allow absence of a certificate), but I am not sure. I guess my questions boil down to: 1) What are the necessary settings for "authentication stuff" to prevent the MITM attack vector mentioned in stunnel.conf? 2) What is the proper way to set up (self-signed) certs to prevent such an attack? Can a self-signed cert be used at a verify level of 2 or 3? Dave

[patch] Unix socket support for Stunnel
by Stefan Behte 11 Feb '11

11 Feb '11

Hi, yet another request for a patch inclusion... Quoting from http://haproxy.1wt.eu/#down : "This patch contributed by Exceliance adds to stunnel the ability to connect to haproxy over a UNIX stream socket instead of using TCP. Sometimes this can be more convenient and/or more secure. " I think it would be nice to have it upstream. And I hope I am not bothering Michals yet. ;) Best regards, Stefan Behte

Security Problems with 4.35
by Stefan Behte 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

Hi, in the announcement of 4.35, I saw: "CLOEXEC file descriptor leaks fixed on Linux >= 2.6.28 with glibc >= 2.10. Irreparable race condition leaks remain on other Unix platforms. This issue may have security implications on some deployments." I searched a bit, but did not find an exploit or more information on the severity of this issue. Could someone elaborate the problem a bit? I could diff to the previous version and have a look, but that will take quite some time, and my C is weak... Best regards, Stefan Behte

use somaxconn in stunnel
by Stefan Behte 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

Hi, attached you will find a patch from Thomas Franco to honor SOMAXCONN. It defaults to 128, which is not enough for some setups. It defines the maximum number of requests that can be queued to a listening socket and can be changed with sysctl via net.core.somaxconn. I think it would be nice to have it in stunnel-4.36 to make it usable in bigger installations. It's available online here: https://github.com/op4g/stunnel/commit/e200bebaf92c068aa319c43fdd50cddd6816… Best regards, Stefan Behte

publish/subscribe with stunnel
by Dam Dam 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

Hello, I am having a problem to configure stunnel in a publish/subscribe architecture. Basically, I have a publisher service configured with stunnel as a server. Its configuration is close to: [publisher] accept = p1 connect = 127.0.0.1:p2 This service publishes data to a subscriber. As far I as understood, the subscriber should be configured as a client with stunnel with a configuration close to this: [subscriber] accept = p3 connect = remote:p1 client = yes Now, my problem is that the subscriber does not listen on any port. So p3 does not actually exist. When the subscriber starts, it automatically connects and subscribes to the publisher and waits for data from the publisher service. I would like to secure the connection between the publisher and the subscriber but I am stuck with the configuration. Any ideas? Regards, Damien

X-Forwarded-For / X-Forwarded-Proto
by Stefan Behte 09 Feb '11

09 Feb '11

Hello Michal, I've read that you prefer not to support X-Forwarded-For because an old code had a buffer overflow and did not support keep-alive functions of HTTP/1.1. I believe the overflow was fixed in the newer version of the patch I've attached. IMHO the patch will still be very useful, even if it does not support keep-alive: often in high-performence setups keep-alive is not even desired because it fills up ressources needlessly. Even if this does not provide all features, a lot of people would be satisfied with it. There is a great desire for this patch, if one searches for "stunnel x-forwarded-for" on google, you will find more than 60 pages and not only a few dozens of blogs/mailing lists that discuss applying the patch and getting it to work as an SSL terminator for loadbalancing software. And last, I know that the patch (the one Willy Tarreau is hosting on haproxy.1wt.eu and is attached) is in use at several high-traffic websites and runs stable. ;) If it's too much of a hassle for you to review and/or integrate the patch, I can understand that very well, I'd just like to open a discussion and would like to know if you have concerns regarding the patch quality, even if you do not want to include the patch at this time. :) Best regards, Stefan Behte

Dear Users, I'm pleased to announce long-awaited version 4.35 of stunnel. The ChangeLog entry: * New features - Updated Win32 DLLs for OpenSSL 1.0.0c. - Transparent source (non-local bind) added for FreeBSD 8.x. - Transparent destination ("transparent = destination") added for Linux. * Bugfixes - Fixed reload of FIPS-enabled stunnel. - Compiler options are now auto-detected by ./configure script in order to support obsolete versions of gcc. - Async-signal-unsafe s_log() removed from SIGTERM/SIGQUIT/SIGINT handler. - CLOEXEC file descriptor leaks fixed on Linux >= 2.6.28 with glibc >= 2.10. Irreparable race condition leaks remain on other Unix platforms. This issue may have security implications on some deployments. - Directory lib64 included in the OpenSSL library search path. - Windows CE compilation fixes (thx to Pierre Delaage). - Deprecated RSA_generate_key() replaced with RSA_generate_key_ex(). * Domain name changes (courtesy of Bri Hatch) - http://stunnel.mirt.net/ --> http://www.stunnel.org/ - ftp://stunnel.mirt.net/ --> http://ftp.stunnel.org/ - stunnel.mirt.net::stunnel --> rsync.stunnel.org::stunnel - stunnel-users(a)mirt.net --> stunnel-users(a)stunnel.org - stunnel-announce(a)mirt.net --> stunnel-announce(a)stunnel.org Home page: http://www.stunnel.org/ Download: ftp://ftp.stunnel.org/stunnel/ SHA-256 hash for stunnel-4.35.tar.gz: a810e220498239483e14fae24eeb2a188a6167e9118958b903f8793768c4460f Best regards, Mike

Compiling with ./configure --enable-fips option
by Lewis, Joseph E Sr Mr CTR USA USA 01 Feb '11

I am having a problem with compiling with fips enable mode on. The default is suppose to fips enabled but when the configure runs with no options it states that fips is not enabled and the make runs successfully. When I use the –enable-fips option, the configure runs just fine but the make fails with : In file included from common.h:374, from file.c:38: /usr/include/openssl/fips.h:69:2: error: #error FIPS is disabled. make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1. Stop. make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1. Stop. IBM support assures me that FIPS is enabled. At this point I am stuck and do not know what to do next. Can anyone offer any suggestions? My system, oslevel, ssl level, etc… are as follows: $ uname -a AIX velssi02 3 5 00C866124C00 $oslevel –s AIX 5300-12-02-1036 $ lslpp -l | grep libc bos.rte.libc 5.3.12.2 COMMITTED libc Library bos.rte.libcfg 5.3.12.1 COMMITTED libcfg Library bos.rte.libcur 5.3.11.0 COMMITTED libcurses Library $ gcc -v Using built-in specs.

malformed packets - follow-up
by Jean-Yves F. Barbier 01 Feb '11

01 Feb '11

Hi list, After asking a friend about these errors, it appear they come from large packets reassembly; so my questions are: does it come from stunnel or http-tunnel? & if it is stunnel, is there an easy way to fine tune the max packet size? JY -- We totally deny the allegations, and we're trying to identify the allegators.

malformed packets

server: xp sp3, 4.34, http-tunnel (192.168.1.251) client: vm virtualbox xp sp3 under Debian Linux sid, 4.34, http-tunnel purpose: secured tunneling of an RDP access =================== Hi list, As I made a wireshark packet analysis, I noticed that *every* packet coming from the server id tagged [Malformed Packet], ie: No Time Source SrcP Destination DstP Protocol 620 37.247880 192.168.1.251 443 192.168.1.26 1062 SSLv3 Info Continuation Data [Malformed Packet] The protocols analyse window says 25% packets are malformed. Could you tell me where it comes from, if it generates extra traffic and if so, how I can fix that? (this setup will be used on a laptop that connect to the internet with a cell phone, so each byte has a cost.) JY -- You will be dead within a year.
